If you love cutthroat thrillers in the middle of political action, this espionage thriller is for you. In Gayle Lynds's Mesmerized, this espionage thriller will take you at the edge of your seat. This took place in post-Cold War Era America between Russia and the USA, while another kind of war was going on. Beth Convey was an international lawyer, who was also a heart transplant patient, and now caught up into a mess, when she came across and witnessed a murder. Jeff Hammond was a former spy turned journalist, when it was after a possible mole in the FBI, and a potential person of interest. Beth and Jeff joined forces to stop a worldwide calamity between two countries in an international conspiracy. With Russian killers breathing down their necks, it was now up to them to stop them before it was too late. There's also a hint of romance to his fast-paced thriller.

This was a great espionage/politcal thriller that dealt with the Cold War head on. I cared about Beth and her heart condition and became concerned about Jeff Hammond and his career. I loved how they've gotten together to stop the bad guys and had feelings for each other. I also loved the dual locations of Russia and Washington D.C. in the United States for this scenic fast-paced thriller, too. This would take you behind the cold scenes of the cold war from start to finish. Great drama, excellent non-stop action with intrigue, suspense, romance and mystery.
